Chad prides itself of its status as an oil exporting country. In spite of a wealth of gold and uranium, Chad's infrastructure is deplorable. The people of Chad suffer greatly on account of political instability and the ensuing violence. Poverty is widespread. Tensions between the largely Arab Muslim north and the Christian and animistic south have resulted in clashes and conflict.

In spite of its troubled political history, the constitution of Chad and other policies protect and make allowance for religious freedom. Pastors and Christian Believers are being empowered to spread the Gospel among the people of Chad. Chad for Christ, an initiative that was started in 1994, has been successful in bringing the Gospel to many in Chad.

The next phase of this Christian movement will revolve around church planting and discipleship. One thousand, one hundred forty-seven Christians have been recruited for this next stage and they will be assigned to each of the sixty-two provinces of Chad.

Prayer moves the hand of God. Once there is sustained, strategic, and informed prayer in the 10/40 Window, we will witness massive numbers of unreached people coming to Christ. Pray that it will happen in our generation. - Beverly Pegues
